Historical Notes
In 1907, Walnut Hill School, located at 44th and Hamilton Streets in Omaha, Nebraska, was a ten-room brick building with a two-room frame annex, with an enrollment of 467 students and 11 teachers. Martha Powell was the principal. In this photograph, the two women on the far left in white blouses may be the eighth grade teachers, Pearl Macumber and Helen Rogers.
